I met a little girl and I settled down 我遇到了一个小女孩，我安顿下来

In a little house out on the edge of town 在一个小房子出来的城镇边缘

We got married, and swore we'd never part 我们结婚了，并发誓我们会永不分离

Then little by little we drifted from each other's hearts 然后一点一点，我们从彼此的心中飘

   

At first I thought it was just restlessness 起初我以为这只是躁动

That would fade as time went by and our love grew deep 这将消失，随着时间的推移，我们的爱深深的增长

In the end it was something more I guess 到底是更多的东西我猜

That tore us apart and made us weep 这撕毁我们分开，使我们哭泣

   

And I'm driving a stolen car 而我驾驶一辆偷来的汽车

Down on Eldridge Avenue 倒在埃尔德里奇大道

Each night I wait to get caught 每个晚上，我迫不及待地想抓住

But I never do 但我永远不会做

   

She asked if I remembered the letters I wrote 她问我是否还记得我写的信

When our love was young and bold 当我们的爱是如此年轻而大胆的

She said last night she read those letters 她说，昨晚她读那些信

And they made her feel one hundred years old 他们让她觉得百年老

   

And I'm driving a stolen car 而我驾驶一辆偷来的汽车

On a pitch black night 在一个漆黑的夜晚

And I'm telling myself I'm gonna be alright 我告诉我自己，我不会有事的

But I ride by night and I travel in fear 但我骑了晚上，我在出差的恐惧

That in this darkness I will disappear 在这黑暗中，我会消失
